Starter Questions Need Answers

Hi everyone,

I am just surprised how I didn't meet Drupal before?!

Going with Drupal will take away security headache, technology updates (rss, soap, ...) and I will concentrate on my customer requirements and customizations. As a starter, I am still walking through as a blind man touching my way. I have the following doubts which might be the judge whether to go for Drupal or to stay on my own CMS!

Inlining content nodes in other content nodes possible?

I'm currently evaluating Drupal for our site redesign, and I ran into a question that I have been unable to answer through my search of Drupal's documentation and various modules.

The issue: I have content that I would like to abstract into a content type (let's call the content type "figure"). This "figure" will contain html, images, etc. These figures can be stand-alone (on a page by themselves), but also embedded in an article (or story, if that's the proper term). (Abstraction allows for re-use in later articles.)

The problem is that I have been unable to find any means of inlining these figure content nodes at arbitrary points in an article. (Basically, referencing them within the body text of the article, so that they're pulled in and displayed.)

This is important because the figures will be cited in the text, and the closer the figure is physically to the actual citation, the clearer the illustration becomes. If all the figures have to reside at the bottom of an article, their efficacy is lost.

Boiled down to a sentence, "Is it possible to inline content nodes in the text of other cotent nodes?"

I have looked on the site and found various comments about inlining, an "Inline API" which doesn't seem to be active any more, and some various other bits that don't seem to fit the bill.

Could be a dumb question ...

I have a site written totally by hand in html, no CSS or anything. I'm thinking about sticking it into Drupal so people can leave comments and such like.

My question is, can I develop in Drupal over the web from any computer? Basically I currently make updates from all over the place, write the html and upload the files - simple, and I can't afford to be tied to one machine. Also it would be good if some other people could add content remotely. So is it possible to shove Drupal onto the server and run it straight over the web from anywhere?

Should I use Drupal to update a searchable dam website?

Hi,

I am currently in the process of moving a clients site which I had a hand in developing way back in 2003 to a different host and in the process have had thoughts of updating the site to use a CMS like Drupal.

The site itself is www.rccdams.co.uk if anyone wants to visit it. I realise it looks very dated now, but that's what partly led me to think of proposing a full update to the client.
